Make one of these

Because that’s what Volkswagen needs, more electrical stuff to fail.

Actually, that’s why it makes sense to me. Hear me out.

The third generation came standard with three pedals and a manual. They may be pretty absurdly cheap now, considering the news. lol

I lived in Jackson for a bit, this dealership isnt that bad. Helped me out with my problem child of a radiator and charged me the actual cost. No markup whatsoever. 

It’s like someone injected a Pontiac Aztek with all of the steroids. And I even *liked* the Aztek.

You are 100% correct. For those who are practical a simple Golf Sportwagen would be about $25k out-the-door (with a monster warranty to boot). But the typical car shopper is anything but practical.  It’s a slow slide into the abyss.  Mike Judge’s Idiocracy has turned out to be a documentary.  

“looks classy, the classiest. I’ll take 12"

Mine had a rotary dial below the headlight switch. You could rotate it to change how long the headlights stayed on after the car shut off, or turn off the auto headlights completely. If it doesn’t work at all, broken solder joints in the module are likely the issue.

I’m really happy for you, and I’ma let you finish, but the SAAB 9³ had the best cupholder of all time.

Since the cop had already completed the stop,

Imagine a future where a cracked windshield costs $4000 to replace!

This means that David Tracy could repair the rusted out frame on his postal Jeep using glass!!!!

Exactly. It should look like a rolling stack of thin, black pancakes.

Exactly.  Every car Toyota produces now competes with the Aztec and Edsel.  It’s maddening.

Turbo engines allowed the glow plugs to move from the prechamber inside the engine head to the actual cylinder, making the starting process even shorter.

This era and style of car design was all about stark lines, right angles, and velour and wood grain. There’s something beautifully utilitarian, yet classic all the while about this style in my opinion. I’ve always been drawn to them - for the era they represent, as well as their fairly uncluttered and basic looks,…

I don’t know what hatchback you have, but you should try it with my wife’s Nissan Note. Every time we start to pass a slower car, they suddenly rediscover the gas pedal and speed up.

Demolition man come to life.
